Old Mrs. Horton subconsciously looked toward the direction where the Olsen family members were.

But the Olsens were all tall and robust, and Keira, standing among them, was completely obscured. Old Mrs. Horton could only vaguely see a woman in an evening gown but couldn’t make out her features.

excuses, wanting to ruin the marriage alliance between Lewis and the Olsen families!”

After scolding him, she turned to Jake. “What about you, Jake? Did you also fail to entertain the Olsens?”

Jake lowered his head and stayed silent.

Since Keira’s death, Jake seemed to have grown up overnight, gaining the ability to discern right from wrong. When someone from the first branch of the Horton family did something too outrageous, he would also intervene.

Because of this. both old Mrs. Horton and Lewis
